The Ups and Downs Sun City Lincoln Hills Community Association • 2017 Budget Timeline of Budgeting Open Meetings 2016 Harriet Kaufman Finance Committee Chair

A review of this month’s actual expens- es and their relationship to budget would have us thinking that we’ve overspent year-to-date and that we’re never going to catch up. Truth of the mat- ter is that we will certainly make budget and, in fact, come out ahead at the end of the year. Here’s why: Each month our budget is comprised of the money we receive from yearly dues and estimated funds expected from outsiders divided by 12 months. The total amount of funds we expect to spend is also a budget component, and the estimated expenses are divided by 12 months. Both income and expenses by outsiders. Consequently, it makes The Road to Aging Well go up and down over the year.
